Out of all the NFL Week 16 games, this one offers the most upside even if both teams feature top-five defenses. Both units are stout against the pass, combining to allow only 29 touchdowns on the season.

The one weakness the 49ers may have is the amount of targets they allow to slot receivers and tight ends over the middle of the field. Jordan Addison, Christian Kirk, Mike Evans and Tyler Boyd have scored out of slot on this feared defense.

The logical conclusion is to look at Zay Flowers and Isaiah Likely — both line up mostly in the slot and have been scoring recently. Flowers has two touchdowns in the last three games while Likely has scored in back-to-back contests.

While I love the emergence of Flowers, I can’t overlook Likely at +333. The second-year TE has assumed the Mark Andrews role and has racked up 19 targets over his last three games.

Pick: Isaiah Likely Anytime Touchdown (+333)

Brandon Aiyuk

Over 4.5 Receptions (+110)

Sean Koerner has Aiyuk projected for 4.9 receptions, so that’s enough reason to like this prop at a plus number. There are a couple of trends, though, that make me like this even more.

Aiyuk has at least five receptions in four of the five home games he’s played this season. The one he didn’t get there was the 42-10 blowout win over the Cowboys back in Week 5, when he had four on seven targets.

When the Niners play high-quality opposition, Aiyuk tends to go over this number (unless they blow the team out as they did against the Cowboys and Jaguars). Aiyuk has gone over this number against the Eagles, Buccaneers, Vikings, Seahawks, Bengals and Steelers, all teams that are competing for a playoff spot.

If you think this is going to be a close game, there’s no reason not to get this over. I’d play it to -120.

Pick: Brandon Aiyuk Over 4.5 Receptions (+110)
